To market, to market......

St. Philip St., Charleston, S.C.

If you saw the movie Dear John, you might recognize this scene as the eastern European market scene. Amazing what they can do with a tight shot and a few signs. This is the abandoned building behind Memminger Elementary.

I had taken pictures of the old door before and wandered in snooping around as usual on my walk, when a security guard got out of a car I hadn't noticed and wanted to know what I thought I was doing. I had no clue they were using it for a film set but when I saw the movie it all made sense.
